Honkai Simulator: I conquered Kiana of Finality

2024.

Honkai Impact world, the moon.

A black-haired man walked step by step on this desolate land, occasionally glancing at the blue planet on the opposite side, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

After countless wars, the Honkai was finally expelled from the human-inhabited world. Over 99% of the Honkai energy was gathered and sealed on the moon.

Humanity had gained the long-awaited peace, or rather, a lasting peace...

And all of this was thanks to a girl who gave everything she had...

For eight long years, she was sealed alone in this desolate corner of the world, facing all despair and sadness with a smile.

That pitiful yet strong girl — Kiana Kaslana.

"But don't be afraid, because I'm here... I'm here to fulfill our promise."

Muttering to himself, the black-haired man's smile grew, his face showing both weariness and sincerity, filled with hope and desire for the future.

Mo Chen.

A boy from Earth who, while playing the mobile game "Honkai Impact 3rd," accidentally traveled to another world and found himself inside the game's world.

After his transmigration incident, he acquired a system called the [Character Strategy Simulator], which allowed him to repeatedly conquer a certain character in simulated lives until the strategy was fully completed, then move to the next round.

So far, Mo Chen had conquered almost every character in "Honkai Impact 3rd," and now, he arrived at the final one: the simulation of the game's heroine, Kiana.

All that was left was to complete the strategy for Kiana, and Mo Chen would fulfill all the tasks assigned by the system and claim the final reward.

'This simulation has been the longest. From Nagazora to Herrscher after another, adventure after adventure, I've accompanied you throughout this world and witnessed your sacrifices for it... Now, I will fulfill our promise and reunite with you!'

His dark eyes reflected the massive purple crystal.

At its center lay a silver-haired girl, eyes closed.

Mo Chen's expression remained calm, his long thoughts coalescing, finally focusing entirely on the red sword in his right hand.

The Divine Key: Judgment of Shamash.

——The symbol of pure love in "Honkai Impact 3rd."

Kevin, Siegfried, Otto... Which of its wielders was renowned for their deep love

This time, Mo Chen would wield this weapon that embodied true love to finally bring an end to this simulation!

"I'm here to take you back, Kiana!"

Boom!

Suddenly, red flames tore through space. Eight years of long journeys and preparation culminated in this one devastating strike!

The fiery sky ripped through the darkness!

Bringing the dawn back!

Crack!

The purple crystal shattered, and the girl's long silver hair fell gently, landing in Mo Chen's prepared arms.

"Mmm…"

A soft moan escaped, and Kiana looked around in confusion before her deep blue eyes locked onto the man before her.

"Mo Chen?" she instinctively called out, as if still trapped in a dream.

"I'm here, Kiana." Mo Chen softly replied, gently wiping the tears from the girl's face. "I've kept the promise I made eight years ago, haven't I?"

"…"

Suddenly, tears welled up in Kiana's blue eyes.

Her gaze locked onto Mo Chen. Beyond excitement, happiness, and contentment, there was almost no other emotion.

At the same time...

With the sound of a "ding——" from the system, Mo Chen realized that Kiana's affection level had finally been maxed out.

Through countless simulated lives, he had conquered and won over countless women, always maxing out their favorability.

This time was no exception. He had spent his life, and finally, Kiana was completely in love with him...

'Now, it's time to end it...'

Holding the elated Kiana in his arms, her head nestled against him as if hoping time would freeze at this moment, Mo Chen felt a hint of reluctance.

But he knew better. He had felt this reluctance many times before, yet the system had never wavered.

In just a few moments, he would likely be whisked away to the next world line, to begin the next simulation.

'Wait... why hadn't the system triggered yet?'

Confused, Mo Chen cradled Kiana and stared blankly. His mind raced, unsure why the usual transition hadn't occurred.

In every previous simulation, the moment he completed a strategy, the simulation ended, and he was forced to the next world line.

Why was this time different?

As uncertainty clouded his mind, he began to recall his first simulation...

The First Simulation.

The target he had been tasked with conquering was Raiden Mei.

The poor girl had been bullied and neglected since her father's imprisonment two years ago. Her once bright high school life had become a gray, miserable existence.

To make matters worse, Cocolia had injected her with the Conquest Gem, a symbol of the Herrscher of Thunder, turning her into a test subject for the third Honkai Eruption.

Faced with such challenges, Mo Chen had spent six months winning over Raiden Mei, getting into her heart, and using every ounce of effort to prevent the Herrscher from fully awakening.

Thanks to his knowledge of the plot and the system's support, Mo Chen managed to conquer Mei's heart, allowing her to resist the Herrscher's control through love and understanding.

Of course, even Mei's strengthened consciousness couldn't easily suppress the Herrscher. So Mo Chen chose a simple, direct method to save her.

He sacrificed his life, offering himself to the Herrscher of Thunder and using his blood to stir Mei's consciousness awake.

It was at that moment, as he lay dying, that he heard the system notification.

Ding——, Raiden Mei's affection level maxed out.

Moments later, he found himself whisked away, returning to the point of origin.

From then on, he continued simulating, conquering, and jumping from one world line to the next...

Mo Chen had assumed that this cycle would continue indefinitely, loving and being loved by one woman after another, reincarnating endlessly.

But after conquering the final character, Kiana Kaslana, the system no longer seemed to force the world line to change.

'What does this mean? Does it mean I can finally stop the endless simulation and live in this final world?'

An instinctive excitement welled up in Mo Chen.

He had waited so long.

Though the journey as a strategist had been exhilarating, even addictive, the passionate years had drawn on for too long. Mo Chen began yearning for the peaceful, everyday life he had been denied.

If he could live an ordinary, happy life, Mo Chen would gladly stay with someone forever, enjoying the simplicity of normalcy.

Holding the blissful Kiana, Mo Chen couldn't help but dream of a future together.

Was this his final reward?

A life with Kiana?

That sounded perfect...

But just as these thoughts settled in, the system chimed again.

Ding--

[All playable characters have been explored]

[Reward received: Imaginary Corridor 1]

[One-time ability to alter the world line to a perfect state]

[Auto-activate in 3 seconds]

'What?!'

Before Mo Chen could fully process this, the scenery around him began to shift.

The system's final notification flashed before him—

[Final mission begins]

[True Ending of Endless Reincarnation: Fall in love with any previously conquered character and stay with her for life.]

In an instant, before Mo Chen could vent the doubts in his heart, his consciousness suddenly disappeared, and everything in all directions began to change and reverse.

This time the world line changes more than ever before.

It seemed as if even the foundation of the world had been shaken and changed.

"Bang——————!"

A long time passed.

After an unprecedented cycle of reversal, Mo Chen looked up blankly and found himself back to the original starting point — Chiba Academy.

But this time, there was no huge wall dividing the east and west in the distance of Nagazora City.

There was no longer any strange pressure in the air from the Herrscher's experiments.

The most important thing is time.

The time now is still 2024!

This means that he did not enter the simulation again, but jumped into a so-called perfect world line!

If there is nothing wrong with the system's description, this world line should have a happy ending.

There are no inexplicable Honkai disasters, no calculations and competitions among various forces, and no messy Herrschers bringing destruction and despair...

Is this really such a peaceful and beautiful perfect world line?

"…"

All of a sudden, before Mo Chen could come to his senses, a sound suddenly came from a distance.

"Um, who are you and why did you suddenly appear here?"

Suddenly, a familiar and gentle female voice came to his ears.

Turning his head, Mo Chen's eyes reflected the familiar purple-haired woman who had undergone many changes.

Raiden Mei!

And this is her when she grows up!
